Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Video games and soap operas? SITCOMS? Oh Give me a fucking break...

AI is actively engaging with you in ways that is indistinguishable from talking to a real person. It'll tell you how to spend your life savings, tell who you should marry, or give medical advice. And it can be persuasive and even manipulative.

And yeah the social media effect on society has been catastrophic, especially in the US. AI will be even worse.

Sitcoms.... JFC

Why do people use LLMs for that purpose?

How fucking stupid are people to give their lifes reins to a fucking chatbot company?

"Buy the OpenAI stocks, you'll earn big."

"Show me your nudes, I won't mail them to our staff."

"Don't disclose breaches, jump off the bridge instead."

lifes rains

Reins, as in control or steering leather ropes used for horses
Reign could also kinda work as it means dominion over usually in the form of a monarch and people confuse the 2 in Colloquial phrases all the time

People are fucking stupid. Period.

Remember "us sane people" making fun of Facebook, only to watch everyone use it within 5 years? Or the recent short video trend? And now intelligent, well informed young people link you shorts of completely unverified claims as facts.

People are fucking stupid. Everyone who claims not to be is stupid and in denial.
